Keary Proud of ‘Gutsy’ Effort

Share on social media

Luke Keary has described his side’s Round 5, 16-12 victory over the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles as ‘gutsy’ following a strong defensive effort.

An opening 15 minute flurry of points saw the Rabbitohs race out to a 16-0 lead before the Sea Eagles turned on the heat to fight back.

But while Keary’s side didn’t add to that tally for the remainder of the match, a monumental defensive effort saw them keep a fast-finishing and enthusiastic Sea Eagles outfit away from the two points.

“I think it was just a gutsy win,” said Keary.

“We started off really well and we knew Manly were going to come back at us hard – and they did. The defensive effort in the second half especially was something I’m really proud of.”
